title = "Conductive polymer switch for controlling superconductivity",
abstract = "Electrochemical techniques are exploited to fabricate conductive polymer/high-Tc superconductor sandwich structures. In such hybrid polymer/superconductor systems, it is found that when the polymer is oxidized to its conductive state, the transition temperature (Tc) and critical current (Jc) of the underlying superconductor film are suppressed. Reversible modulations in the values of the transition temperatures up to 50 K are noted for these structures. Upon reduction of the conductive polymer layer back to its non-conductive form, Tc is found to return to values close to those acquired for the underivatized YBa2Cu3O7-δ film. Thus, the principle of a molecular/superconductor switch for controlling superconductivity is demonstrated.",
